Overview

Blending meticulously researched history with intimate psychological portraiture, In the Belly of the Anaconda reimagines the Civil War from within the occupied South, revealing a city where disease, faith, politics, and survival intertwine, and where a woman's quiet acts of courage become a form of resistance. At once epic and personal, the novel offers a deeply human account of how one life is transformed when the old world collapses, and a new one struggles to be born. Original, historically authentic, especially well-written, impressively benefiting from the author's extensive research involving dairies, newspapers, and archival accounts, In the Belly of the Anaconda is a riveting, engaging, and thought-provoking read from start to finish. A simply fascinating and carefully constructed read, In the Belly of the Anaconda is especially and unreservedly recommended for personal reading lists and community/public library American Civil War-themed fiction collections. -Midwest Book Review A richly descriptive, compelling read, packed with historical factoids. -Kirkus Reviews
